This 3D Print Shoots Cheese Balls

[@gordo3di]

Love it man! We hand sanded those acrylic beds 🤣

[@MakersMuse]

I love how this isn't even the first food flinging contraption you've wielded. I vote for a ducted fan powered Cheez ball shooter ! 😍

[@Faulcan]

I came here to suggest a scaled down version of Ivan Miranda’s fan powered ball gun: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqDLhKdmZbZ7d9k

[@mattdavenport9937]

Do it!!!!! Brushless motors!

[@gurnarok]

Like the Jupiter Proton pack from Out Of Darts?

[@MakersMuse]

@@gurnarok yes !

[@DJlegionuk]

Could we see a colab with Ivan Miranda @ivanmirandacom

[@Martial-Mat]

"That's cool - but let's go bigger" Words Joel doesn't want to hear in the bedroom.

[@outofdarts]

Perhaps the rubber bands (*boing*) on only one side are making the parts bind up... We can't wait to see the Mk2!

[@DoubleL11862]

If it can fire cheese balls, it can fire HIRs

[@MegaDman42]

Or maybe he just needs the proton pack, or to scale it so the spring version uses the nexus pro spring ... I might have some work to do myself lol

[@BaIlsLover32]

Cheese balls are the same size as nerf rival balls (like the ones in OOD jupiter) so they should work very well

[@jonathanklinglesmith8168]

a fly wheel powered cheeseball blaster, just what I didn't know I needed.

[@BaIlsLover32]

@@jonathanklinglesmith8168 yeah, you can shoot cheese balls trough zeus and maybe jupiter

[@henninghoefer]

You'll probably need something like the Proton Pack from OutOfDarts?

Congrats on 500k subscribers! Here is too the next 500k!

[@garrettg5036]

Absurdity, creativity, memes, and cheese balls. Might rank as one of my favorite videos.

[@deekue]

looked like the bolt was shearing a partially loaded cheeseball against the breech entrance. In a paintball marker there's typically a detent in the breech/barrel so only one ball is loaded to prevent this.

[@Hybrid.Robotics]

YES, please make a TRUE cheese ball shooter! Something that is made just to shoot these wonderful cheese balls.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

I will! hahahha

[@TheMidnightSmith]

From experience, the default size works perfect with a spring and rubber bands! I feel it balances each other out to not hit the treat of choice too hard. Maybe some rubber or foam at the striking tip would help not crush the cheese balls

[@asgeyer]

Maybe the spring version with a strong spring inside would fling the cheese balls better? Either way still love the video Joel! I Need to make one of these ASAP!

[@dapperprops]

need to see a Cheez Ball shooter collab with outofdarts. 6000 Cheez balls per second!

[@MedicoBoomstick]

My wife is recommending gum balls. I am 100% behind this idea.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

OMG YES

[@LuftdroneDk]

Maybe you could make a small “funnel” insert so it only loads one cheeseball at a time and also make a small “shuffelboard” type of fork to put in front of the firering mechanism? That way the cheeseballs will be pushed more unified from the gun, one at a time ;)

[@haayzac3231]

KZbin don’t down a video of Joel having fun aka shooting people with tic tacs lol 😂

[@ThreePointOneFou]

I want to know who looked at a container of Tic-Tacs and thought "ammunition". That person has far too much free time. 🤨

[@UncleJessy]

😂🤣 a master class in 3D Printing Fun

[@davelane1773]

Dude that was hilarious, I'm still cracking up. I wonder if some of the designers make things with the thought in mind "I'm gonna make this so Joel will print it at 350%".

[@tobycoles5437]

Most rival NERF blasters will fire cheeseballs

[@mrmurphy172]

I started printing the tic tac shooters a few weeks ago. Arguably the fastest upgraded thing that flings other things. There's like 4 or 5 versions currently. Some spring some rubber band powered. I opted for dual springs. Hard to cycle but it flings mints over 8 ft.

[@josephdecesaro1528]

Call it a Pew Pew like Demolition Ranch does. The loading port is to large so its loading more than one and crushing them.

[@Justhacknslash]

Joel: I'm not de turd. Me: I don't know about that, man. Nicely edited video Sean!

[@lasersandlayers]

Thanks!

[@3DJapan]

I hope your cheez ball clip is clean.

[@jaredpinkston]

Why isn't every comment screaming "whoppers". Milk duds aren't right. Whoppers are the only way. Or maybe oversized hot tamales.

[@EllieTheFloppa]

Is... that a Bobby Duke Arts shirt? Nice

[@tetraliteproducts542]

I would suggest using different ammo, such as .50 caliber mini marshmallows. The ratio of weight to surface area of cheese balls is too low, hence they are overly affected by air resistance.

[@3dbronze]

Is it just me or is everything awesome, no matter what it is, when it’s printed HUGE!

[@acsni7932]

This looks like the design of 3DPatriot. Is this where you got it from?

[@zr921]

Looks like a modified version of 3DPatriot's original design.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

I think it is a variation of that design or was from 3DPatriot.

[@JesusMartinez-zu3xl]

Yes! Maybe on version two you guys can use compressed air to fire the cheese balls.

[@mikevandebunt811]

A ping pong ball shooter could be scaled down to shoot cheese balls. Most of them are pneumatic, so might doo less damage to the ammo. (As an old guy, I remember an odd ping pong ball shooter from the 60s that we kids called a "blorp" gun. It was made of rubber and you stuffed a ping pong ball in to the muzzle and then squeezed the grip, causing air pressure to pop the ball out. It had a range of about 2 feet and approximately zero accuracy, but it was fun if you were 6 or 7. Still available on Amazon. Totally unsuitable for cheese balls, but a fun memory.)

[@geckoboi2801]

I love the editing on this video. A lot better than I've seen before on other channels!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Thank you!

[@CordellCoats]

Just a couple of thoughts, tpu printed bolt with a cup to hold the cheeseballs together, and maybe a ‘top’ plate for the large ‘tic tac’ container that will allow only one cheeseball in the chamber at a time.

[@rolfathan]

I think cheeseballs are just too light and delicate for being good projectiles. I would suggest using the same design, but finding a different food to fire. I'm not sure what is exactly like a scaled up tictac, but that's really what that needs.

[@davidtobin]

I think there should be more episodes about throwing food. I feel like something with ice cream needs to happen.

[@dasistdaniel]

Make it a 3d printing Olympics! Every 3d printing nerd can design a cheese ball flinger and participate.

[@TripodsGarage]

Awesome video! Keep up the great content 👍

[@PutTheKettleOnGromit]

501K! Congratulations Joel and your dedicated creative team!

[@JoeAconite]

Marshmallows would be a good blend of structurally sound enough to fire yet soft for safety. Slap a Ghostbusters Logo on it and you could theme the episode.

[@roowut]

which screws were used for the tictac gun?

[@nullvoid3545]

v2 needs a way to mount the cheese ball container to the weapon directly

[@artdbrito]

* Print 350% scale Tic-Tac's!! *

[@sirwill3d]

safe until it pokes an eye out.

[@PelicanPines]

Needs to be "automatic" "Machine Gun" design... perhaps run by "Air"... Oh... guess I'm saying YES... we need cheese ball delivery mechanism. (AKA GUN)

[@zeypher_863]

This is incredable, props to the editor XD

way too many cuts/references in this one for my taste

The world definitely needs a proper cheese ball flinger, now more than ever! Please take us to that glorious future!

[@quinnjdq]

Super fun video, love the whole premise and that print came out incredible! Please make a part 2!

[@theimpatientbrewer]

How about a trebuchet? The tic-tac works well, but a softer approach required for the cheese puffs.

[@nickdarrow4873]

I think your friends at Out of Darts could be a good resource to launch cheese balls!

[@MikeArted]

Joel, just put Whoppers Candy in it!

[@ChainsawRosary]

Maybe you just have to make bigger Tic-Tacs!

[@erickwoodard9991]

You may get a little bit more power if you used bungie cords and hook them on the firing pin ears

[@ImPaCTSnYpEr]

Joel this is why we love you

[@marcoreviews]

Nailed it out of the park again! Please make a cheese ball thrower 2! Yay! I didn't use the G word lol!

[@crussty3d]

Next up- 3 round Cheese Ball Burst! The best part of the cheese balls being an epic fail is now you have a gallon of them to eat :)

[@Phelps3D]

I'm thinking that the suggestion to change the input hole to limit the ammo to just one of the round shapes falling in is a good idea. For some reason I am thinking the round chocolate truffles or the hazelnut Roche type candy.

[@m2pt5]

Fill that big box with tictacs and make it a tictac shotgun.

[@bigfoot650]

You could always try shooting cocktail (mini) sausages, they are more tic tac shaped

[@anthonymigliori5032]

Don't ask 'Why', ask instead, 'Why not'

[@MasterDark-qr3pn]

I think you might have more distance if you use air power perhaps with a balloon to store and fire the air for the cheese balls

[@bubbieewster]

I loved this print I gave a bunch of these to some friends along with the can of whoop ass. Speaking of which can we get a giant can of whoopass on the gmax?

[@ozcanison]

Malteasers! Same size as the cheese balls, but far more structural integrity!

[@brandonmeece7788]

Nitrogen powered air cannon - for cheese balls.

[@haayzac3231]

[@hytekfdm3699]

I think you should have a design and build competition for cheese ball flingers. Prize being a virtual high five.

[@Lucas-wf5sc]

Great video, I would love a v2. Now a suggestion you can also use a spring for even more acceleration

[@danielhastings3167]

Some things don't scale up very well (because geometry/physics). You might need to make some design changes for the large version

[@SeanTaffert]

Dude! You need a CaptainSlug Caliburn foam blaster style rig to get your cheeseballs going .

[@JonS]

I was expecting real cheese, not flavored corn products. How much bigger would it need to be to fire mini Babybel cheeses?

[@luiskraus1526]

Of course we want!!! You could use some singelshot-loading so it's only one cheeseball at a time or modofy your magazine. Maybe some other cheeseballs would be harder. Also try out to get a "longer bolt travel way", so it accelerates slower. But nice Idea, I didn't expect the cheeseballs to fly at all!

[@LincolnWorld]

That was fun. I'd think you could convert the models for a "flinger of spheroidal nerf product" to fit a cheese ball. But it will probably have to be under powered to not destroy the "artificial cheese flavored corn puff". Maybe some sort of trebuchet type of mechanism will keep it in one piece? High-5!

[@braindedpanda]

make a mold for making 350% scale tictacs

[@Mupshot]

a proper cheese ball flinger would be in the form of a trebuchet. IMO

You should do it. You will definitely need something pneumatic, like a spring powered nerf gun. I'm tempted to have a go at designing one too.

[@calvinoberg3802]

Yes, please make a version 2 of the Cheese Balls Flinger

[@dizzyfpv4903]

In Australia we have ‘Bullets’, chocolate coated liquorice, maybe exactly twice the size of a TicTac 🤔💊💡

[@turingincomplete6844]

there already exists a 3d printed contraption for firing cheese balls, and you just collabed with the person who made it :V (on a slightly more serious note: the rival Spring Thunder shells ought to be cheeseball compatible, and they've been successfully tested with hotdogs, so anything in that general ecosystem should work decently)

[@sophiahargis2166]

I saw a stl for 3d printed tictacs on things the other night

[@3DMusketeers]

Love this.. But gosh, we would get into SO MUCH TROUBLE ha ha!

[@VAXHeadroom]

The acceleration curve needs to be the reverse of a rubber band - slow at first then increasing. Same problem solved by the Punkin Chunkin folks!! The air cannons need to ramp up to keep the pressure the same over the length of the barrel. Trebuchets work great for this kind of accel, but cheez balls are SO light getting the release pin angle correct would be a real pain. I bet you could throw a milk dud about 30 yards though :)

[@MegaDman42]

Joel you need to get the proton pack going on the cheese balls or scale the spring one scaled for the spring from a Nexus Pro!

[@AlexSwavely]

Maybe something in between...? Cap'n Crunchberries...

[@noth1021]

I need one of these. My dogs love cheese balls and this would be the best treat dispenser ever. 🤣

[@AgedBeyondDecay]

[@totalkiller4]

i think just slack the screws a little as i had mine to tight and the parts where binding up just a idea

[@penquinmaster]

I would love to see a more effective cheese ball launcher. I want to use one with my friends.

[@verticalsorh7124]

Those nerf guns that shoot the foam balls also shoot cheese balls. Except they’re fired a lot farther.
